The 2015 Midwest Meltdown Triathlon presented by Elite Cycling is scheduled for Sunday, May 31st! We intend to build upon the longstanding tradition of this long-running race and look forward to implementing a few changes based on feedback from the athletes, volunteers.

If you have any questions or comments please feel free to visit our contact page and let us know.

Elite Cycling is proud to partner with Sleepyheadbeds as the official charity partner of the 2014 Jackson County and Midwest Meltdown Triathlon/Duathlon!

Founded in 2010, Sleepyhead Beds began picking up gently-used beds and delivering them to bedless children in the Kansas City metro area. Sleepyhead Beds delivered approximately 1800 beds to area children in 2011, and there are many more children still in need of a proper place to sleep.

There are plenty of area resources that provide housing, food and shelter, but there is no resource that provides beds for children in need.

These children come from families that are overwhelmed with financial stress and cannot afford the upfront cost of a bed. Some live in poverty, some live with disabled parents and some are victims of violence.

No matter what conditions children are living in, we believe every single one of them deserves the comfort of a bed.

We’re proud to support this great organization and encourage our athletes to learn more about the charity partner who they are supporting through this year’s events.
